Hi, I am learning Perl Tkx canvas and having problem adding text to the item created in the canvas window. In my program I expect to see the text "testing" to go along with the rectangular box but it does not work. If you see what I am missing please point it out. Thanks so much in advance. ----------------------------------- use Tkx; $mw = Tkx::widget->new("."); $canvas = $mw->new_tk__canvas; $canvas->g_grid(-column=>0, -row=>0, -sticky=>"nwes"); $mw->g_grid_columnconfigure(0, -weight=>1); $mw->g_grid_rowconfigure(0, -weight=>1);
